Water pump - O.E.M. or aftermaket?

[hayasht@vrg.toronto.edu (Takayuki Hayashi)]

I will be getting the timing belt changed on my CQ very soon.  After checking
the archive, it seems like a good idea to change the water pump at the same
time just as a precaution.  I got a quote for both O.E.M. and aftermaket
water pump from Clair Parts and the difference is more than 50%.  Can I 
go with aftermaket or should I stick with O.E.M.?


Thanks.
